General Interest

YOUTH
Spent his entire childhood in Savoy, encouraging him to choose to compete for France. Did all his schooling in Aime, from nursery school to secondary school. After spending one year in Norway, he enrolled at the Reinach Agricultural College in Chambery, which has a biathlon centre. Graduated with Scientific Baccalaureate in 2019.

CHOICE OF COUNTRY
Born to a French father and a Norwegian mother, he had a choice of which nation to represent. "The choice I made was a choice of the heart. I've always lived here (France), I grew up here and I couldn't see myself running for a Norwegian club when I started school in France. And I must say that I am very attached to my valley and to the ski club of Peisey-Vallandry which was also my father's. Having said that, I love Norway and I could see myself living there again one day." (en.peisey-vallandry.com, 2021)
